The 2024 NFL season is heating up, with Week 16 bringing a slate of exciting matchups. Here are some bold predictions from NFL Network analysts.
Jalen Hurts and Jayden Daniels will face off in a crucial rematch, with Daniels’ performance the key to keeping the Commanders’ playoff hopes alive. After scoring five total touchdowns in their first meeting, Daniels is set to outduel Hurts once again.
Cooper Kupp’s scoreless Week 15 outing ended many fantasy seasons, but he’s expected to bounce back this week. With seven end-zone targets and a history of consistent production, Kupp is predicted to score two touchdowns against the Rams.
Trey McBride finally breaks his touchdown-less streak this week, as the Panthers allow the most receiving touchdowns to tight ends in 2024. Expect McBride to finish as the TE1 for Week 16.
The Falcons’ Michael Penix Jr. makes his first NFL start against the struggling Giants, and he sets an NFL rookie single-game passing yards record. With a depleted defense, Penix is poised for a strong outing.
In fantasy hot takes, Matt predicts that Trey McBride will score two touchdowns, while Bijan Robinson will set a career-high 30 fantasy points in Week 16. With a depleted Giants team and a heavy workload, Robinson is expected to make big plays against the Falcons.
